...luckily, it's not so much a bug, as it is an odd  
implementation ;-)  The default draw style of cube is GL_QUADS, and  
you can get this either by [draw default< or [draw Quads<

[draw fill< actually switches it to GL_POLYGON...so this may point  
out that we need a different order of vertices/faces to create the  
expected shading...
